Growing your money while it accumulates, is necessary to a good savings plan. Having easy access to your savings without having to pay taxes and, without destroying the compounding growth you are earning. Is part of what makes Infinite Banking such a beneficial financial tool.

Having a cash cushion allows you to recover the opportunity cost of items you have to finance. Sometimes paying off your debt is not the best option.  Listen and hear the story of how one of our clients has used Infinite Banking in his life.

Infinite Banking allows you to access your money while it grows. 

Unlike a 401k, IRA or other retirement accounts, with infinite banking you don't have to lock away your money until retirement age. You can use your money throughout your life, while its growing. This provides huge benefits and allows you to grow your money with investments outside of infinite banking, while earning an internal rate of return.

Using IBC, our son and his wife were able to purchase their first home without getting a bank loan.

Other clients of ours have used their Infinite Banking to finance vehicles, pay off high interest debt and invest. We share some of these stories on todays episode.

The big idea of Infinite Banking is that you recover the money you’re spending.

The Infinite Banking Concept uses a participating whole life insurance policy to accumulate equity, then use that equity to leverage for a loan.

This process can be understood easily by thinking of something we are already familiar with. A HELOC.

There are some similarities to using a Home Equity Lines of Credit and using a Life Insurance policy as collateral for a loan. We talk about them.

There are also some big differences that gives Life Insurance a big advantage. We talk about those.

The Infinite Banking Concept is very straight forward.  Much of the complicated information and articles on IBC are not helpful and just cause more confusion.

This episode is all about Infinite Banking Made Simple.  Listen and learn now

A common question we get asked is, can I start Infinite Banking with a Lump Sum? 

The short answer is: Yes

We find that what most people are really asking with this question is, Does it make sense to start Infinite Banking with a lump sum?

A detailed answer will take into consideration the specific amount of the lump sum, personal details, as well as rules and regulations that will apply to you, and will tell you not only if it is possible, but if it is profitable.

In this episode we share examples and scenarios that we've designed and observed, where people have funded Infinite Banking policies with lump sums of money. This will help you understand the process better.

What is Financial Freedom? Is it the ability to buy anything you want at any time without looking at the price tag? Is it having enough money that you “Never have to work again.” Is it not having any debt and no debt payments?

Money isn’t everything, but it rates reasonably close to oxygen on the “gotta have it scale” Everybody knows what money is, but what is financial freedom? 

Do people have financial freedom once they finally have a million dollars in a bank account? Or does your bank account balance even matter?

Is financial freedom permanent? How do you know when you are financially free and what does that look like exactly?

That’s what we are going to talk about right now.

Apr 8, 2025

First off, is an overview of how banking works. The way a bank manages their deposits, loans, assets and liabilities is the key to how they make money.

By understanding and following some of the same principles a bank uses, you can self finance items in your life and earn the interest you would have otherwise paid to someone else. This is often referred to as Becoming Your Own Banker, or The Infinite Banking Concept.

Did you know that no insurance company truly 'does' Infinite Banking—but many offer the keys to unlock its potential?

We'll break down how top life insurance companies offer policies that can unlock the power of infinite banking, even when they're not promoted that way.

Learn about:

What characteristics separate a good infinite banking policy from a standard life insurance policy.

How dividend performance (PWLI) impacts a policy's long-term value and the mechanics of policy loans.

Why some companies might discourage or limit these loans and the potential implications for policyholders.

Mutual vs Stock company dynamics with Infinite Banking.

Direct vs Non-Direct Recognition - interest rates / cash value growth.

Riders available. Some companies offer PUA and term rider combination for high cash value

Mar 18, 2025

Much has been written, published and said about Infinite Banking.

Sometimes it feels confusing to decipher what’s really accurate. If you ever feel confused, you'll enjoy this podcast. We're going to shed some light on popular misunderstandings surrounding Becoming Your Own Banker and The Infinite Banking Concept.

Points of common confusion:

  • Treating Infinite Banking as an Investment - Just looking at the ROR versus the Return of Money

  • Viewing Infinite Banking as a product rather than a process

  • Thinking of a life insurance policy as a bank.

  • Trying to borrow money and repay it, just to make the policy grow better

***Watch to the End! Some people have a bad experience with the Infinite Banking Concept. We'll share what happened.***

People ask how much money do you need for Infinite Banking or they assume they need to have more than they do, in order to benefit from Infinite Banking.

On the flip side, people who have more money sometimes think Infinite Banking is only for people who have less money. What is the truth?

Do you have to have lots of money to use infinite banking or do you only need to have a little? Or, is there a golden number somewhere in between that really makes the Infinite Banking Concept work?

In this episode we are talking about Infinite Banking policies.What kind of life insurance policy you want for the Infinite Banking Concept and how to tell the difference between good and bad Policies.

We get quite a few policies that come in to our office for review. Sadly a lot of these policies are pretty bad, but that’s also kind of good news in a strange way because the sooner you know you have a bad policy the sooner you can handle that problem, and get the policy you wanted to begin with.

There’s a lot of things you need to know to get the best life insurance policy for the Infinite Banking Concept, but there is also a lot of things you don’t need to know and if you stop to analyze all of them, it can delay you from actually getting started.

Davy Crockett’s motto was purportedly “Be sure you’re right then go ahead.”

That’s some of the best advice when it comes to The Infinite Banking Concept too.

If you are practicing the Infinite Banking Concept and you don’t know beyond a shadow of a doubt whether your policy is good or bad, make sure you contact us to get a policy review, It’s is so worth the financial peace of mind.

In this episode we are talking about what people need to know to get the MOST benefit from the Infinite Banking Concept. The most important thing people need to know, to benefit from the Infinite Banking Concept, is how to get started. There are a lot of benefits to be had from the Infinite Banking Concept but you won’t get ANY of them, unless you get started. What people need to know to get the MOST benefit from the Infinite Banking Concept is how to expand their system of Infinite Banking policies properly.

We NEVER hear people say “I wish I would have waited a little bit longer before I got started with the Infinite Banking concept”. We DO here people say, “I wish I would have known about this sooner.” This begs the question, “How do you “get started” with the infinite banking concept?”

We have been using the Infinite Banking Concept personally for 19 years at this point. Although the way we have used it changes over the years as the economic environment changes, The Infinite Banking concept still works just as good as ever.

The Infinite Banking Concept is an idea, It’s how you think about money.

New Years are incredibly popular times people resolve to improve their lives and their futures, but tragically they tend to be the beginning of yet another failure to people who don’t plan first, then prepare and then take action on their programs.

We want to encourage you to take a moment and make a plan to succeed in 2025, once you have a plan together then you will know how to prepare for action and that will put you on the trail to accomplishing your goals.

In this podcast we are talking about the problems with the infinite banking concept.  

The infinite banking concept is an idea not a product. The infinite banking concept is a way of thinking about money and finance in a way that allows you to keep more of the money you make, grow your wealth and have financial peace of mind. 

Some people think the infinite banking concept is a life insurance policy. Or that a life insurance policy is an infinite bank. It is not. The only reason life insurance is associated with Infinite Banking at all, is because life insurance has tax preferred treatment, gives the owner reasonable growth on their money, provides protection and lets the owner leverage their money without giving up policy growth or guarantees. 

Some big problems we see when people try and get set up with the Infinite Banking Concept are:

• Too big of premiums

• Borrowing to pay premiums

• Borrowing and repaying loans just because

 You can avoid these problems and be successful with the infinite banking concept by learning how it works and implementing it correctly. We will cover that in this podcast too. 

If you have a question about the Infinite Banking Concept, ask your question in the comments, or send an email to producer@wealthtalks.com so we can answer your questions right here in the studio.

Today we answer 9 questions we received about life insurance, cash value, money, interest rates, and dividends.
These questions and their answers will be helpful to anyone who uses, or plans to use life insurance cash values and the Infinite Banking concept.

The questions are:

1. Do I get to choose the interest rate I pay on a policy loan?

2. If the dividend rate is 5% and my policy loan interest rate is 4% am I making 1% on the difference?

3. When I pay back my policy loan with interest am I paying myself back principle and interest?

4. Does the interest I owe on a policy loan change every month if I am making principle and interest payments monthly back to the policy?

5. What is the interest rate that the guaranteed cash values compound at?

6. How is the dividend rate determined?

7. Is the dividend rate the same as the compounding growth rate of the policy cash values?

8. Can the insurance company alter my life insurance contract if I start flight lessons?

9. When I borrow money from my policy how does it affect the guaranteed growth of my policy? How does it affect the dividends? How does it affect the face value?
